Briel was flabbergasted when Erland hit the nape of her neck quite hard with his palm.
"Does it hurt?" Erland asked frantically.
Briel turned her head, she looked at Erland sharply.
"Don't hit me like that!" said Briel, a little annoyed.
"I'm not hitting you, but I'm helping you to be better," said Erland.
"What helps? You hit me too hard. Don't you know, when you're with women you don't have to use full strength!" annoyed Briel.
"Okay, I'm sorry," Erland said and opened the bottle of mineral water. He gave the bottle of water to Briel.
"Drink," said Erland.
Briel downed the water.
"Is it better?" asked Erland.
"Yes," said Briel and turned her face towards the river.
"I don't have the appetite to eat anymore. Can we go down now to the river? I'll take pictures there," said Briel.
Erland didn't say anything. He got up from his seat and stretched out his hand in front of Briel who was looking up at Erland.
